I've been waiting for the rating for Omega-Okada to appear on Cagematch, but it turns out it can't because the website doesn't support ratings over *****

Bryan Alvarez interviews Magnum TA on Figure Four Daily this week, it was quite an interesting listen - Magnum himself has no idea where the NWA got the idea that he was going to be fine and back wrestling within weeks after his accident. So either they were just living completely in denial or were being incredibly scummy in order to keep viewers around watching for a return that could never come.

Some would say that was an unnecessary bump but I think it really added to his review.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Soimetimes people need a change, Shinsuka Nakamura before 2009 being a babyface that they hoped would be the next ace alongside Hiroshi Tanahashi. No one cared.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
Dave remaining optimistic about the New Japan stars WWE could potentially bring in and have international success with is starting to become heart breaking.

Oh awesome, it's been way too long since they did a show together. I think the most recent one was the one they did briefly after the "lost" show which Dave said was the best interview he'd ever been in, only it turned out Austin hadn't taped any of it :negative:

Double-posting, but Austin's interview with Meltzer about the Okada/Omega match is up now. Austin didn't like it at first but as it went on he started thinking it was one of the best matches he's ever seen :thumbsup:

Guy with neck injuries does not like a match that involves crippling the neck of one of the wrestlers, imo.

I'd agree with Austin there tbqh. The top rope dragonplex was dumb as gently caress and I don't know if Corino's line about Okada remembering that spot when he needs neck fusion surgery was a joke or not but it made me sad because the match didn't need it.

Oh yeah me too, I like these guys too much to watch them pull those kinda moves.

edit: I like Steve being like "this match was so intense, they really needed to sell the hell out of that match the next day" :allears:

I like Bryan a lot generally but I hate when he is objectively incorrect about something and gets angry about being corrected. It doesn't help that Mike turns into a quivering series of diatribes anytime Bryan gets defensive

One of Mike's big issues is that when he goes off on a subject, he continually thinks of and brings up potential counter-arguments to his point so he can address those.... then gets so lost in his run-on sentences that he forgets what his original point was or ends up arguing vehemently against it himself.

Has Bryan ever been right about anything? All I can think of are times where he's not NOT been wrong, but never right.

This goes for both predictions and his own opinions.

It's weird that Dave didn't mention to Stone Cold that the WWE had Kenny Omega in developmental and they've offered him a contract multiple times since that he's turned down.

I had heard the story before about how Ole Anderson called out Dave Meltzer on a WCW phone line calling him a glasses wearing skinny nerd, but I hadn't heard the story until this week that Vince apparently was trying to convince Dave to take him up on the fight. Is there any truth to this story?
